😮‍💨 I didn’t work yesterday. No progress made on my product. Am I sad? No. Does it really matter? No. Sometimes it's time to take a break, and that’s okay. One day won’t hurt your progress.

Just set the analytics of youmightnotneed.co public. Is it a good idea? 🤔 #buildinpublic

I want to add information to the YouMightNotNeed cards. I feel like they are not too informative, so I though I should add more details to them. What do you think? #buildinpublic

It's good to remind yourself why you started your journey in the first place I started because: - I want to work on projects that bring real value to people - I don't want to work for anyone else than me (and of course earn enough money to take care of my family) Why did you start your journey? 👇

I want to build a small community of ambitious people. Trying to never work a 9-5 for someone else again. And most importantly work on projects we love. I thought it was a nice idea to let people know what to expect when following me on 🦋. What's your ambition? #buildinpublic

Ever feel like giving up? 😮‍💨 Every founder feels this way at some point. It’s part of the journey. Here’s how to keep going: 1. Remember your ‘why’ 2. Focus on small wins 3. Talk to your community 4. Take breaks when needed Success comes from persistence, not perfection.

Save your time AND money on those "$10K MRR" courses and hacks. This is basically everything you’ll get from them: 1. find one niche 2. find one problem users have 3. create a tool or guide to solve it 5. talk about it online 6. sell and repeat 5. until $10K You’re welcome 👋

your first product won't be amazing. neither will your second. truth is, nobody cares if it’s perfect. what matters is that it’s out there. so ship, learn and repeat.

What most people think they need to build a winning product. ⁃ Latest MacBook ⁃ Dark mode ⁃ Fancy logo ⁃ Lots of features What they actually needed: ⁃ A product that solves a real problem ⁃ Efficient marketing Simplicity is what will make you win in the end.

Just switched all my products to @plausible.io 🎉 Will discover the tool step by step but I love what I see. The UI is way cleaner and clearer than GA.

Solve half of your marketing issues. Stop saying: "Buy my product it has this cool feature" And start saying: "You have XYZ problem. My product will solve that for you by doing ABC”
